Answer

  1. RNA

Explanation:

RNA is found everywhere- nucleus, nucleolus, mitochondria, chloroplasts, ribosomes, cytoplasm, etc.

RNAs are 3 different types- mRNA, tRNA and rRNA. mRNA and tRNA are found in the cytoplasm and rRNA in the nucleus.

The ribosomes can be free within the cytoplasm of a cell or attached to the endoplasmic reticulum but do not present inside the nucleus.

RNA and ribosomes act together resulting in the synthesis of proteins.
